Chapter 166 Carter's Confession

When I heard those words, I couldn't shake the feeling that the decade I'd spent knowing Luke had been a complete farce.

Had I not been given a second chance at life. I would never have uncovered his true nature. He was utterly disgusting!

He even dared to try something inappropriate with me

I kicked his stomach with my foot and forced him to the ground. Before he could respond, I stepped closer and slapped him across the face multiple times.

He would never have imagined that the self-defense skills I picked up in my previous life would be used against him.

While I couldn't take on someone with proper training catching a pervert off guard was an entirely different matter.

I pressed the button to lower the partition and told the driver sharply, "Stop the car!"

Noticing Luke's condition, the driver didn't dare continue and brought the car to an abrupt stop.

Before stepping out, I delivered a strong kick to Luke.

""You're disgusting!" I spat.

With that, I found myself abandoned in the middle of nowhere, snowflakes gently drifting down around

1. me.

Feeling stuck, I dialed Carter's number. He picked up almost instantly, saying, "Hello,"

"Can you come pick me up?

"Of course.

Carter arrived in no time, spotting me crouched by the roadside, looking a bit out of sorts.

Once I got into the car, he immediately asked, "What happened?"

Annoyed, I recalled Luke's words. Regardless of how serious his mistakes were, Carter would always side. with him. Even if he didn't have romantic feelings for Luke's mother, their bond was clearly a deep and lasting friendship. Because of that. I chose not to bring up the incident. It would only force him to pick between me and Luke.

I Said casually, "It's nothing. I just remembered I drove here and wanted to take my car back."

He said, "Give the car keys to Damian and let him take over."
